Can everyone help me decide between buying this Z30+lens kit or getting a used Nikon Z5 body on eBay for around $600?
They are very different animals: Go with the Z30 Kit if you prioritize a lightweight travel camera, video recording, or vlogging, and want a complete, functional setup right out of the box; Go with the used Z5 if your main focus is stationary or low-light photography, you prefer framing shots through an eyepiece, and you don't mind budgeting extra cash down the line for full-frame glass. a used $600 Z5 is body-only, you will also need to factor in the extra cost and size of full-frame lenses compared to the ready-to-shoot Z30 kit.
Is this a pretty portable camera? Something for taking vacation pictures without being too big or heavy?
Yes, it's a perfect travel camera. It's incredibly light and compact, making it easy to carry around all day for vacation pictures. The only real caveat is the lack of a viewfinder. In bright, direct sunlight, it can sometimes be difficult to frame your shots when you're relying entirely on the rear LCD screen.
I got this deal sometime last year and the camera looked brand new with a shutter count of 2. Takes great pic.
Similar experience. Mine comes with zero count and looks brand new. Really nice small camera. Not small enough to put into the pocket but very easy to carry around. It takes great pictures. Highly recommend.
Great camera. It's small and light, but keep in mind that it can't be used in the rain and the battery is on the smaller side. It also lacks in-body image stabilization, though some of Nikkor Z lenses use Vibration Reduction (VR). The kit lens has vibration Reduction
